What a ridiculous, hard and uncomfortable looking instrument of torture!

The older I get, the faster I used to be ...
I don't know, have read some glowing reviews of (genuine?) ones. I'm tempted to try a carbon saddle ^_^.

Not too bad for you girls, but I have a tear inducing image of my dangly bits dropping into that crevice, and remaining there as I jump off the bike :eek:.
i use a genuine Selle smp lite 209 and there is no way my dangly bits could get caught in the crevice

oh by the way great saddle

I use the Chrono and love it . Next time I have the lycra on I will try and stick one of my boys into the crack for you :laugh:

Anyhow , I spoke to paypal again this morning and asked if there was another way to get my money back other than sending the saddle back to the seller . They said no :angry: So they get away with it scott free .
Then I had a quick look at the selle smp site and they are aware of the fakes with a full page devoted to it so I have contacted them via email with the sellers name , email address and full home address and also given them the online tracking number so if they wish too they can follow the fake saddle .
You never know , something may get done .

I think my nether regions prefer something soft...and that looks really slippery too!
@Fnaar :eek:

BTW, what is the fault with this saddle? Bar the question of it being genuine.

Where the rails meet the saddle at the rear it looks like they have been glued on . Im not sure if a genuine one is one piece of carbon or not but this was a messy looking job for a £500 saddle . It was also 20g heavier than selles stated weight . There was an imperfection on the top and the box was also fake .
